11.2.7.4 Configuring sFlow Sampler Configuration Page
sFlow agent collects statistical packet-based sampling of switched flows and sends them to the
configured receivers. A data source configured to collect flow samples is called a sampler.
Selection Criteria
sFlow Sampler Datasource(Slot/Port) - sFlowDataSource for this flow sampler. This Agent will
support Physical ports only.
Configurable Data
Receiver Index - The sFlow Receiver for this flow sampler. If set to 0, the sampler configuration is
set to default and the sampler is deleted. Only active receivers can be set. If a receiver expires then
all samplers associated with the receiver will also expire. Allowed range is (1 to 8 )
Sampling Rate - The statistical sampling rate for packet sampling from this source. A sampling rate
of 1 counts all packets. A sampling rate of 0 disables sampling. Allowed range is (1024 to 65536 )
Maximum Header Size - The maximum number of bytes that should be copied from a sampled
packet. Allowed range is (20 to 256 )
Non-Configurable Data
Slot/Port - The interface for which data is being displayed.
Receiver Index - The sFlowReceiver for this sFlow sampler.
Sampling Rate - The statistical sampling rate for packet sampling from this source.
Maximum Header Size - The maximum number of bytes that should be copied from a sampled
packet.
Command Buttons
